Im actually really tempted to buy this. 110 acres.









Motherfuckin Bat Cave!!! Build a house over the entrance. Fight crime.

[schuss]

That's pretty sweet if you have a mill lying around.

Unfinished grow area upstairs, bat cave in the basement, already has a hot tub…

Future Home of Bobby’s Custom Exotics and Batman Cosplay?

With the cave and the presence of water in it, and the surface stream, I'd check what insurance will cost. The no surprises approach. In addition to upcharges for regular homeowners, water cave means possible subsidence, sinkholes, etc.

It's been on the market for a year. I bet that's the reason why.

I was wasting time on Zillow the other day and looked at my Grandparents old place in Somerville, MA (they moved in '77), there is a large mirror in the livingroom that I remember being there as a kid and my Mother (who is now in her 80's) said it was there when she was little and may have been put there when the house was built in 1900. I found it surprising that in 120 years it hasn't been taken down or moved.

Where I currently live, this will sell for more money and needs a complete renovation. Not only that, 15 dumb mfers will be lined up with cash offers.

Good god that’s fugly.

[dunfree]

100% that house had a lawn jockey

The columns are a nice touch, though. Doesn't it remind you of Tara?

The columns are Tara.

What really annoys me is the off center front door
Not to mention the second floor.

That architect should be shot.

It was a nice ranch. Then someone added a second floor with tall columns hoping it would look more southern.
But it’s an abortion

[Cruiser]

Wait? You're selling? Didn't you just get the hot tub installed???

^ This. Noticed off center front door immediately.

It’s a deconstructionist statement on the absurdity of symmetry, bro. You just don’t ‘get it’.

[::: :::]

if you look closely at many traditional houses (good ones, this one isn't in that category), you'll find the implied symmetry is rarely actually symmetrical

that thing above is likely developed on spec or purchased plans, but, either way, most likely drawn by an unlicensed home designer

pretty conventional look in the SE: somewhat plantation-ish but mostly just cheap cuz the builder couldn't bring himself to actually spend money on the things that would make it good

[exsparky]

I looked at a house that has two unconnected 2nd floors.

That arch should be beaten too.

[Ted Striker]

Yeah, there was no architect.

Looking around because the market is so absurd. The catch is I need to leave town to realize any profit.

1.2M and less than 3k sqft.


Everything new kind of looks like the Beetlejuice house and cost 2+. Not sure why everyone likes white painted brick so much.

I wonder what the plan for the front is. That's a long ways down to grade.

Like an experienced architect or related design professional?

In a residential setting, if I ever hear a conversation like this coming from a builder to an owner it's a clear sign to stay away: "... sure I can do that, my wife's cousin is an architect I'll talk to her..."

Translation: I don't usually use a designer but since you asked I'm taking a cheap approach (no guarantees the cousin is a practicing architect, might be a full time bartender, or a ski bum) and you Mr. Home Owner are agreeing to it right here in this brief conversation. Now what else did you want to discuss?

If it's a direct son or daughter of the builder rather than a "cousin" or other distant relative then maybe, but I'd have to know the son or daughter.

Maybe it’s time to broadcast which realtors are still active in Russia. Pretty simple to turn that tap off, it’s not like they (usually) own anything there. Maybe a building or two?

What exactly am I looking at here? Is that the front or back? Is it missing a porch or something?
